AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The solution provides a flexible, mechanically sturdy, and space-efficient connection between sockets, accommodating varying arrangements while minimizing mechanical stress and excess cable usage.

Problems solved by technology

However, connections with patch cables are associated with disadvantages.
This leads to more mechanical stress on the patch cables, frequently causing them to break.
Furthermore, additional space is needed for stowing the excess cable, which makes for a less compact assembly of the effect devices.

Embodiment Construction

[0033]FIG. 1 is a side view of a plug connector according to a first embodiment of the invention. The plug connector has a housing 1, on which a first plug 21 and a second plug 22 are arranged.

[0034]In this embodiment, the first plug 21 and the second plug 22 are configured as two-pole jack plugs. Jack plug connections are frequently used to transmit audio signals, particularly from electronic instruments such as electric guitars or electric basses. As depicted in FIG. 1a, the poles of the plugs 21 and 22 are formed by tips 21a, 21b [sic] and rear cylindrical portions 21b, 22b of the plugs 21, 22 (the so-called sheaths), which are electrically insulated from one another by insulation rings 21c, 22c. The sheaths 21b, 22b are grounded. In the interior of the plugs 21, 22, provision is made of an electrical connection (not shown) of the tips 21a, 22a of the plugs 21, 22 to the respective opposite ends of the plugs, which end in an electric contact. This can be discerned in the second p...

Abstract

The invention relates to a plug connector having a housing, from which a first plug emerges, which is fixedly arranged relative to the housing, wherein a second plug that can be slid along a displacement surface of the housing is arranged on the housing such that the relative position between the first plug and the second plug can be changed.

Description

[0001]This application claims priority to foreign German application DE102017122241.3 filed on Sep. 26, 2017.BACKGROUND[0002]This invention relates to a plug connector for connecting two sockets, and also to an assembly comprising a plug connector.[0003]In the music sector, connections are needed for interconnecting foot-operated effect devices that are used for modifying the electric sound of an electronic musical instrument such as an electric guitar or an electric bass guitar. As a rule, a plurality of such devices are interconnected in series in order to form a signal chain, in which effects can be turned on and off independently of one another for a broad spectrum of sound modifications. Such signal chains are used especially in live concerts by guitarists and bassists.[0004]For easy transport of the already hooked up effect devices, the latter are often attached in the hooked up state to a transport element such as panel. Because the effect devices to be connected are very dif...
